WHY IS THIS WATCH SPECIAL
The demand for vintage Submariner models has been constantly accelerating, and discerning collectors are always on the hunt for a beautiful example that has not been polished with its original chamfer on the edge of the case. It's a matter of luck and care for a watch to keep its original dial and bezel with its gloss perfect – and this example covers all those criteria.
THE STORY
After the 5513 was discontinued, the realisation of a new reference, the 14060 (40mm diameter) begins. The case production of the ref. 14060 started in 1988, but this submariner is marketed only in 1990, when the new caliber 3000 is created. The ref. 14060 represents the first Submariner without date with sapphire 'Tropic' crystal belonging to the group 25-286 (This group also includes the references: 14000, 14010, 14203, 14208, 14233 and 14238). Waterproof to 300 meters, the ref. 14060 has a dial with 'Bicchierini' indexes, 'Triplock' winding crown and unidirectional rotating bezel, in order to give a furher safety measure. The insert of the rotating bezel of sapphire crystal watches has different characteristics with respect to the ones fitted to Submariners with plastic crystal: springs, securings and luminous capsules change. The Submariner watch was equipped with the bracelet ref. 93150: and Oyster especially designed for diver's models.
The reference 14060 is considered to be the most 'Pure in design' Submariner model, due to its symetrical dial and a two-line indication.
